That is too practical. For ultimate HN bait it needs to include Rust deployed (over QUIC) as WASM on RISC-V.

But the CPU needs to be build in Minecraft.

Rust and QUIC are bloated, but I'll take WASM and RISC-V

What about Commodore where it took 7 hrs to boot (video YT)

Edit: oh damn this one is even worse 8.4 days ha

Is that the same Dmitry that got the linux kernal to run on an atmega?

also on 3 8 pin chips. I listened to interview with him and he decided to wait 10 years to give competition a chance then try to do it on raw transistors or vaccuum tubes

The scary part is I believe he would do it, too

Has anyone run linux on thermionic valves yet?

I’m on it

You'd better be, we have certain expectations from you now /s

But more seriously... I don't think that Linux has ever been booted on a non-monolithic CPU (I wanted to say 'discrete cpu' first, but there's some PDP-11s with 4 chip CPUs)

one could argue that 4004 is it. It does not really do memory ops at all. all decoding for memory ops happens inside the memory chips. but yeah - not non-monolithic enough

Linux in PDF was impressive in a different way

Running native vs running under emulation is a complete different beast

Any turning machine can boot Linux under emulation

turing machines are far superior to 4004 to, normal machines don't have infinite memory for example

...Linux nommu, and the system busses of these platforms, won't get the complete environment that Dmitry wants, unfortunately.
